Travel Nurse Practitioner NP

at  Bayshore HealthCare

MAKE A DIFFERENCE AS A NURSE PRACTITIONER IN NORTHERN COMMUNITIES OF ALBERTA!

Are you a Nurse Practitioner (NP) looking for an exciting travelling work experience? Do you have a passion to make a difference in the lives of those you care for? Have you thought about traveling for work to expand your personal and professional growth in health care? We provide a unique way to experience an expanded clinical scope while enjoying an adventure simultaneously!
Bayshore HealthCare’s Northern Nursing program has provided high-quality community health relief staffing services to Indigenous and Northern communities since 1997. Our Nurse Practitioners experience exciting assignments in Northern Canada’s isolated, semi-isolated, and remote areas. Work closely with diverse Indigenous communities (First Nations, Inuit, and Métis) providing care to community members in Canada’s remote Northern communities of Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, and Nunavut.

As an NP in isolated, semi-isolated and remote communities in Northern Canada you will practice autonomously providing primary care to patients and families. All ages practice is required from diagnosing & treating illnesses, to prescribing medications, sending referrals and performing medical procedures for your patients. You will provide professional nursing care and community health services to patients (individuals, families, and groups) on a routine and emergency basis to promote a healthy lifestyle, to prevent and/or reduce incidence of disease, disability, and death, to support rehabilitation and to restore health and palliation.
NPs on our team will treat the whole person with an approach that includes addressing needs relating to an adult or child’s physical and mental health, gathering medical history, focusing on how an illness affects their life and family, offering information and education encouraging a healthy life.
Participation with community members and collaboration with the primary care team and supporting agencies to develop and implement a variety of programs to address patient and community needs will be required to promote health and well-being and to meet identified areas of health care concerns which may include the provision of programs such as: adult health clinics, pre and post-natal clinics, school health programs, chronic disease clinics, immunization programs and communicable disease surveillance.
